the storyline has potential, another revenge drama, so far good acting and palpable friction. I just can get over the really bad wigs but hey it’s only the first episode and there shouldn’t be any more wigs later…

The perfect balance of comedic story-telling blended with drama is amazing, most importantly the comedic timing is perfect, not forced nor slapstick. I can’t really find a newer series to match this form of storytelling

ahahaha you really need to read the whole comment. I only mentioned two as an example, I couldn’t post all 40 shows I like. and yes I do yoga every day and do deep breathing. next time be careful how you write your comment as well as you misunderstood my post, I too understood yours. peace.

Si. Yo comprehendo. gracias.

I see. I don’t always get to know which country they are made. At one point no noted a HK production only to be told it was a Mainland China. I’m a big fan of Taiwan productions like “Your name engrave herein” and “Unknown” my two highest rated BL ever. and that’s jus my personal preference.

I never said that at all I am not sure how you interpreted my post but you are too far off in your understanding. so please advice me, no, educate men in my grammatical and writing skills.

we all have different preferences but exceptional to you is not always the same for others. That life and I’m glad we all can’t be lemmings and be the same. be that as it may, we may agree on others as well so let’s just we can agree to differ. it’s just a TV show. and I did credit the actors for their acting skills. also bear in mind I never said Addicted and Revenge Love is not exceptional, these two are my favorite as well

I’m surprised this show wasn’t cancelled by the Chinese censors…after all they banned Addicted and almost stopped Revenged Love. And I have to give credit to Chinese producers for creating toxic relations albeit more of the extreme end. it is just a show from a novel designed to get emotions up, but if you look beyond the characters, the entertainment factor is really good, not the best but good. I specially love the push-pull relationship between our main characters, the sibling and the parents. I mean who would survive the pressure of filial responsibility in an Asian culture, except if you’re Asian. in appreciation of the challenges of Asian gay men and the pressure of family and society is real and that’s the essence of the story like so many other, and the writers just expresses this in ways that may seem extreme. looking forward to the rest of the series, and because this is just a fantasy I hope they at least make it a happy ending, giving others hope of a brighter future. kudos tot he actors for pulling us into their world.

I fully agree, the story truly felt like “hey let’s make the series longer so let’s add this story” and has no face value other than explaining BYT’s anger at the magistrate.

yes I’ve heard that still makes his character less believable as a martial artist of some kind. love the fight scene.

I’m on episode 26 and I’ve noticed the storyline of the dead brother just went on a tangent and too long. another typical Chinese drama filler. I have to rate these last few episodes much lower for the context. this show appears to have lost its steam since 5 episodes prior. and what’s a fighter who can’t use a sword…maybe they should title the show The return of Kung Fu with David Carradine (sarcasm intended). can we now move on.

Japanese writers and directors truly know how to bring the best out of their actors…BL or not. And that very short scene in the rain with and umbrella…that did it for me. I felt for both of them. this is an awesome series.

just making it to episode 14 and the close-space sword fight scenes are so good…the creative way this show made this scene puts other shows to shame. and yet there is more to come. the sword fighting is out of this world.

glad I’m keeping up with my mandarin love the convo in the temple and shows who in the group was keeping up with the mandarin studies. more supposing is the ensemble, it’s like the thai Ghosbusters and more!!! everytime Sky shouts his prayers I’m shouting with him.

it’s a struggle to finish this series…it’s like climbing Mount Everest…full of slippery slopes. glad everyone likes this kind of storytelling but I can’t even laugh anymore…the penultimate result of the pandemic when K-drama went mainstream it lost a lot of its original charm. don’t hate me I’m just not like you and it’s OL not to be alright.

very rare does any drama capture my attention and this show did that. it’s not perfect but the actors were really good in portraying their roles, the script was very creative and though I had some idea the plot twist threw me off…Dylan Wang very subtly but confidently played his role though I feel his just supporting here, and you know who really is leading this drama. but there are flaws, so many flaws in the storyline though I’m willing to forgive the script as overall the show does capture one’s attention. as the quote goes “Hell hath no fury of a woman scorned”

ahahahaha rinse repeat. I love that. I feel the same way. maybe they will build him with more power later but his role does act like a lame duck.

oh I’m at episode 4 so maybe it gets darker…

I am enjoying this show but not to the degree that ai would say it’s a great show. I am laughing at the slapstick comedy and the situation comedy parts but wherebibstrugglenis when suddenly an very serious story is inserted. it’s making me bipolar for some reason. do I want to laugh and be sad or angry. three emotions in one show. because it’s not a rom-com it’s not a feel good funny but again slapstick laughable comedy. still not at par with other superhero shows of the past but fairly good enough. maybe it’s a dramedy or tragic comedy…or maybe I’m just a foolish about it.

what your saying makes sense and maybe I wanted more but the last episode Bai explains his challenge and it made sense. now it’s up to Zhao to decide what he wants to do. I still love this series.
